Hello, on this fly from June 12, 2020, from Leipzig (Saxony/Germany) at first I thought it was a Cylindromyia species, but I did not find any suitable photos. Now I hope for help. Best regards Maik Maik Hausotte attached the following image:  [81.47Kb] |

Might be Cylindromyia brassicaria group... The definitive book to identify Tachinids is https://www.zobod...1-0170.pdf. If you look at the Cylindromyia key, you will probably not be able to find out a species for your fly, but you learn which characters must be recognizable to get to a species. I got stuck already in the beginning - the pictures don't show the details. So only a skilled Tachinidist like Theo might be able to say more. Let's wait. Regards, Sundew |

The book is great. Thank you very much! As a beginner I get dizzy with the many species ... I will work on myself! Best regards, Maik

Please note the size of the fly, it is small. This is the female of C. pusilla. Theo |

Yes, the fly was very small, much smaller than Cylindromyia interrupta. Thank you very much and best regards, Maik PS.: There are many bugs on this meadow, too Sciocoris cursitans. |
